{BYSHC} Has A New Card Sketch #67 For March 2026

 Hello everyone.  Happy March Yay. I'm so excited to have a Holiday card for {BYSHC} Card Sketch 67.  This sketch is a great one. I know I always say that but it's true.  Join us this month to get ahead on your Holiday cards and our sponsor this month is Pajama Crafter Stamps Yay.  You can win a $25 GC.

I love this sketch and how you can use 2 squares and a sentiment and you're done. On my card, I used The Vintage Christmas Card Panels W/Bases & Envelopes from Pajama Crafter Stamps.  I love this set because the quality of the panels, A2 card bases, and envelopes is so good. So easy to make some gorgeous Holiday cards. I actually used 2 panels here from that bundle.  I used a square die to cut one out and layered it on silver glitter paper like the Card Sketch 67 and then cut the other panel to be 4 x 5 1/4 and layered it on gold glitter paper. I love how this card turned it.

My sentiment was stamped and heat embossed from the Citrus & Scarlet Blooms Stamps set with gold WOW embossing powder in Metallic Gold Rich. I then cut my sentiment according to the card sketch.  I then glued all to the A2 card base from the Vintage Christmas Set. So easy and I will have another card to share this month.  I hope you grab this set.  I love how this card turned it.

I hope you join us this month. We love to see your cards and it's a chance to win a GC to Pajama Crafter Stamps.

Master Creator Bundles On Sale No Code Needed:

I think this card is so cute.  I used the New Striped Easter Eggs Stencil 6x6 and Layered Outline Bunnies 6x6 Stencil.  I used kraft cardstock for the Striped Easter Eggs an dink blended the stencil using Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink, Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink, and Speckled Egg Distress Oxide ink.  So fun.  On a white piede of cardstock I ink blended the Layered Outline Bunnies with Black Soot Distress ink and Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink for the cheeks and ears.  Love these bunnies too.

I cut my striped eggs background to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, I did a little stitching for interest.  I cut my bunnies with my paper trimmer and stamped a sentiment from A Colorful Life Designs retired Happy Stamp set.  Everything was glued to a pink A2 card base.  I hope you grab these stencils they are too cute.

Inspired by...Sweet Caterpillar and A New Card Sketch

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for the New Challenge this week over at Inspired by... #IB377and this week it's Sweet Caterpillar. The inspiration photo is so cute.  I love donuts.  Apple Fritters are my favorite.  Cinnamon Rolls are my next favorite...and then there is chocolate cake donuts ACK. Too many favs LOL.   Also we have a New Card Sketch.

Let's get Started:

Fun right??? I had so much making this Donut Caterpillar card I love the photo. I was inspired by of course the Donuts and caterpillar. The pink foil also caught my eye hence my pink foil on my card and those googly eyes.  I didn't really try the sketch, it's a great one though.

Another Holiday Card Using Sketch 66 {BYSHC}

 Hello everyone.  I have another Holiday Card for the  {BYSHC} Card Sketch #66 Creative Worship Stamps is our sponsor this month. You can win a $20 GC. YAY.

I love this cute gnome stamp set called Winter Gnomes that I paired with the Snow Storm Stencil.  I used Blue Lagoon ink from Gina K Designs for the stencil on pattern paper from my stash 4 x 5 1/4.  I stamped the stamp image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on white cardstock 100 pounds and colored with my alcohol markers.  I cut out my image with a circle die and stamped a few snowflakes with the same ink around my image.

I also stamped a sentiment from the same stamp set with black ink on white cardstock and cut it with my paper trimmer. Everything was glued to a matching blue A2 card base 4 x 5 1/4. I really like this card sketch I think its fun to mass produce a bunch of cards.  You still have a few days to join us!
